The 44-year-old foreign individual was detained after law enforcement executed a raid on his vehicle.<\/p>\n
“Authorities said the vehicle, which had travelled from Johannesburg to Cape Town, was stopped during a joint operation by the Paarl Highway Patrol, Boland K9 Unit, and Provincial Traffic officers. A search of the truck uncovered 55.8 kg of tik and 30.5 kg of cocaine, with a combined street value of nearly R19 million,” the X blog reported.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The driver is set to appear in the Paarl Magistrates\u2019 Court, facing serious drug trafficking charges. “Police have hailed the bust as a major blow to drug trafficking networks operating between Gauteng and the Western Cape.”<\/p>\n
Phenduka has expressed his belief that politicians are complicit in these issues. In his remarks on X, he stated, “Sad. The politicians are involved in this evil.”<\/p>\n
Recently, another foreign national was arrested in Mpumalanga during a raid on a R350 million meth lab. South Africans are looking to assign blame.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
